TECHNICAL FIELD

The application is related to a method of transferring semiconductor devices, particularly related to a method of transferring mass optoelectronic semiconductor devices.

DESCRIPTION OF BACKGROUND ART

As technology developed, optoelectronic semiconductor devices have contributed a lot to energy transmission and conversion. For example, optoelectronic semiconductor devices can be used in system operation such as optical fiber communication system, optical storage system, and military system. According to the energy conversion mode, optoelectronic semiconductor devices can be classified as three categories: conversion from electrical power to light such as light-emitting diode and laser diode; conversion from light to electrical signal such as optical detector; and conversion from light into electrical power such as solar cell.

Growth substrate is important for forming an optoelectronic semiconductor device. Semiconductor epitaxial structure of the optoelectronic semiconductor device is formed on and supported by the growth substrate. Therefore, the quality of the optoelectronic semiconductor device is determined by a suitable growth substrate.

However, a suitable growth substrate sometimes is not suited to be a support substrate for the optoelectronic semiconductor device. For example, in order to obtain a high-quality semiconductor epitaxial structure for a light-emitting diode that can emit red light, the opaque GaAs substrate is usually preferred as the growth substrate for its lattice constant is the most close to that of the semiconductor epitaxial structure for red light-emitting diode. But, as the light-emitting diode is used for emitting light, the opaque growth substrate blocks the light and therefore decreases the light-emitting efficiency of the light-emitting diode in operation.

In order to satisfy the different conditions of the growth substrate and the support substrate required for different optoelectronic semiconductor devices, the technique of transferring substrate is developed. To be more specific, the semiconductor epitaxial structure is firstly formed on the growth substrate and then the semiconductor epitaxial structure is transferred to the support substrate. After the support substrate is bonded with the semiconductor epitaxial structure, the removal of the growth substrate is the key technique in the process of substrate transfer.

The method of removing the growth substrate mainly comprises dissolving method such as wet etching, physical method such as polishing and cutting, or the method of forming a sacrificial layer between the semiconductor epitaxial structure and the growth substrate in advance and then removing the sacrificial layer by etching. However, both of the wet etching method and the physical method such as polishing and cutting, damage the growth substrate. Furthermore, considering the importance of the environmental protection and the energy conservation, it is wasteful if the growth substrate cannot be reused.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS First embodiment

FIGS. 1A to 1I show the structures corresponding to the steps of a manufacturing process according to the first embodiment. FIG. 1A shows the cross-sectional diagram along the dotted line AA′ of FIG. 1B. According to the process for manufacturing the optoelectronic device disclosed in the embodiment of the application, an adhesion substrate 101 with a surface 1011 is provided, and an adhesion structure 2 is formed on the surface 1011, wherein the adhesion structure 2 has a thickness t. In this embodiment, the thickness t is between 2 μm and 6 μm. The adhesion structure 2 comprises an adhesion layer 202 and a sacrificial layer 201, wherein the adhesion layer 202 and the sacrificial layer 201 are formed side by side on the surface 1011 and connect to the surface 1011. FIG. 1B shows the top view of the adhesion structure 2, and each of the adhesion layer 202 and the sacrificial layer 201 has a specific shape. The adhesion substrate 101 comprises an electrically-insulated substrate or an electrically-conductive substrate. The material of electrically-insulated substrate comprises sapphire, diamond, glass, quartz, acryl, LiAlO₂ or ceramics; the material of electrically-conductive substrate comprises semiconductor such as Si, GaAs, SiC, GaN and AlN, oxide such as ZnO, metal, or the combination thereof. In this embodiment, the materials of the adhesion layer 202 and the sacrificial layer 201 are different. The material of the adhesion layer 202 comprises BCB. The material of the sacrificial layer 201 comprises organic material or inorganic material, wherein the organic material comprises UV dissociated glue or thermoplastic material, and the inorganic material comprises metal, oxide, or nitride, wherein the UV dissociated glue comprises acrylic acid, unsaturated polyester, epoxy, oxetane or vinyl ether, the thermoplastic comprises nylon, PP, PBT, PPO, PC, ABS or PVC, the metal comprises Ti, Au, Be, W, Al or Ge, the oxide comprises SiOx, and the nitride comprises SiNx.

As shown in FIG. 1C, a growth substrate 102 is provided and a semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 is formed on the growth substrate 102 by epitaxial growth. Then, the growth substrate 102 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 are adhered to the surface 1011 of the adhesion substrate 101 through the adhesion structure 2 by heating and pressing method, wherein both of the adhesion layer 202 and the sacrificial layer 201 contact the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3. Because the materials of the adhesion layer 202 and the sacrificial layer 201 are different, the adhesion between the adhesion layer 202 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 is different from the adhesion between the sacrificial layer 201 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3. In this embodiment, the adhesion between the adhesion layer 202 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 is larger than the adhesion between the sacrificial layer 201 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3.

The semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 comprises a first semiconductor layer 301 having a first type conductivity, a converting unit 302, and a second semiconductor layer 303 having a second type conductivity sequentially formed on the growth substrate 102. The first semiconductor layer 301 and the second semiconductor layer 303 both are single-layer structure or multi-layer structure (multi-layer means two or more than two layers). The first semiconductor layer 301 and the second semiconductor layer 303 have different conductive types, different electrical types and different polarities, or are doped with different elements for providing electrons or holes. When the first semiconductor layer 301 is p-type semiconductor, the second semiconductor layer 303 is n-type semiconductor, of which the electrical type is different from that of the p-type semiconductor. On the contrary, when the first semiconductor layer 301 is n-type semiconductor, the second semiconductor layer 303 is p-type semiconductor. The converting unit 302 is formed between the first semiconductor layer 301 and the second semiconductor layer 303. The converting unit 302 is able to mutually convert light into electrical power or electrical power into light. The semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 can be further adopted in a semiconductor device, equipment, product or circuit for mutually converting light into electrical power or electrical power into light. Specifically, the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 can further form a light-emitting diode (LED), a laser diode (LD), a solar cell or be adopted in a display. Taking the light-emitting diode (LED) as an example, the wavelength of the emitted light can be adjusted by adjusting the combination of one layer or multiple layers of the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3. The material of the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 comprises aluminum gallium indium phosphide (AlGaInP) series, aluminum gallium indium nitride (AlGaInN) series or zinc oxide (ZnO) series. The structure of the converting unit 302 comprises single heterostructure (SH), double heterostructure (DH), double-side double heterostructure (DDH) or multi-quantum well (MWQ). Specifically, the converting unit 302 can be intrinsic, p-type or n-type semiconductor. When an electrical current passes through the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3, the converting unit 302 is able to emit a light. As the converting unit 302 is made of aluminum gallium indium phosphide (AlGaInP) series, the light emitted from the converting unit 302 is amber series such as red, orange and yellow. As the converting unit 302 is made of aluminum gallium indium nitride (AlGaInN) series, the light emitted from the converting unit 302 is blue or green.

In the next step, as shown in FIG. 1D, the growth substrate 102 is separated from the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and a surface 3011 of the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 is exposed. The method of separating the growth substrate 102 comprises irradiation method which uses a laser to penetrate the growth substrate 102 and to irradiate the interface between the growth substrate 102 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 for separating the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 from the growth substrate 102. In addition, wet etching method can be applied to directly remove the growth substrate 102 or remove an interlayer (not shown) between the growth substrate 102 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 for separating the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the growth substrate 102. Besides, the interlayer between the growth substrate 102 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 can be removed by using vapor etch method in high temperature for separating the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the growth substrate 102.

As shown in FIG. 1E, a patterned adhesion medium 4 corresponding to the sacrificial layer 201 is formed on the surface 3011 of the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3, wherein the method of forming the patterned adhesion medium 4 comprises forming a layer of adhesion medium on the surface 3011 and then using photolithography method or etching method to pattern the layer of adhesion medium to form the patterned adhesion medium 4, wherein the photolithography method and the patterned etching method are general semiconductor producing processes. The material of the patterned adhesion medium 4 comprises organic material or inorganic material, wherein the organic material comprises acrylic acid, unsaturated polyester, epoxy, oxetane, vinyl ether, nylon, PP, PBT, PPO, PC, ABS, PVC or BCB, and the inorganic material comprises metal such as Ti, Au, Be, W, Al, Ge, Cu and combination thereof, oxide such as ITO, CTO, ATO, IZO, AZO, ZTO, ZnO and SiO_(x), or nitride such as SiN_(x).

In the next step, as shown in FIG. 1F, the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the adhesion structure 2 are patterned to reveal the surface 1011, so a plurality of semiconductor epitaxial stacks is formed, wherein the multiple semiconductor epitaxial stacks are separated. The multiple semiconductor epitaxial stacks comprise a first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 and a second semiconductor epitaxial stack 32, wherein the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 has the adhesion medium 4 thereon and the second semiconductor epitaxial stack 32 has no the adhesion medium 4 on the surface 3011. The method of patterning the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the adhesion structure 2 comprises wet etching or dry etching. In this embodiment, dry etching method is applied to make an interval w between the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 and the second semiconductor epitaxial stack 32 as small as possible to prevent epitaxial stack of the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 from being removed excessively. In this embodiment, the interval w is between 1 μm and 10 μm, or preferably about 5 μm.

In the next step, as shown in FIG. 1G, a picking unit 103 is provided to stick to the adhesion medium 4 by heating, pressing, or using stickiness of the picking unit 103. The picking unit 103 comprises electrically-conductive material such as electrically-conductive substrate and printed circuit board, wherein the electrically-conductive substrate comprises semiconductor such as Si, GaAs, GaN, AlN and SiC; oxide such as ZnO; metal; or the combination thereof, and the printed circuit board comprises single-sided printed circuit board, double-sided printed circuit board, multi-layer printed circuit board, or flexible printed circuit board; or electrically-insulated material such as sapphire, diamond, glass, quartz, acryl, AlN, LiAlO₂, ceramics and EPS tape. When the EPS tape is used as the picking unit 103, it is necessary to provide a hard substrate to stick with the EPS tape for supporting the EPS tape and preventing the EPS tape from sticking the surface 3011 of the second semiconductor epitaxial stack 32. In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11A, the picking unit 103 comprises a flexible substrate 1032 and a supporting structure 1031, wherein the flexible substrate 1032 comprises polyester resin (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), or polyimide (PI), and the supporting structure 1031 comprises hard substrate such as sapphire, diamond, glass, quartz and acryl, for supporting the flexible substrate 1032.

In another embodiment, the patterned adhesion medium 4 is able to be formed on the picking unit 103 in advance. Then, the alignment bonding technology is applied to align the adhesion medium 4 and the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 firstly and then bond the adhesion medium 4 and the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 by heating and pressing.

In the next step, as shown in FIG. 1H, when the adhesion between the sacrificial layer 201 and the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 is smaller than the adhesion between the adhesion medium 4 and the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31, the forces in the opposite directions can be directly applied on the picking unit 103 and the adhesion substrate 101 respectively to separate the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 and the sacrificial layer 201 for preventing the structure of the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 from being damaged. For example, when the material of the sacrificial layer 201 is UV dissociated material comprising acrylic acid, unsaturated polyester, epoxy, oxetane, or vinyl ether, the stickiness of the sacrificial layer 201 can be reduced by the irradiation on the sacrificial layer 201 by UV light, and then the forces in the opposite directions are directly applied on the picking unit 103 and the adhesion substrate 101 respectively to separate the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 and the sacrificial layer 201. When the material of the sacrificial layer 201 is thermoplastic comprising nylon, PP, PBT, PPO, PC, ABS, or PVC, the stickiness of the sacrificial layer 201 can be reduced by heating, and then the forces in the opposite directions are directly applied on the picking unit 103 and the adhesion substrate 101 respectively to separate the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 and the sacrificial layer 201. When the adhesion medium 4 is made of the material with high stickiness such as BCB, and the sacrificial layer 201 is made of the material with low stickiness, the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 and the sacrificial layer 201 can be separated by directly applying the forces in the opposite directions on the picking unit 103 and the adhesion substrate 101 without heating or irradiating the sacrificial layer 201. The material with low stickiness comprises metal such as Ti, Al and TiW, oxide such as SiOx, or nitride such as SiNx.

Besides, as shown in FIG. 1I, when the material of the sacrificial layer 201 comprises metal such as Ti, Al, TiW and Ag, or the material with Si such as SiOx, SiNx and poly-Si, the sacrificial layer 201 can be removed by wet etching or vapor etching, and then the forces in the opposite directions are directly applied on the picking unit 103 and the adhesion substrate 101 respectively to separate the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 and the sacrificial layer 201. In this embodiment, the etchant used in the wet etching process comprises hydrofluoric (HF) acid, and the chemical material used in the vapor etching process comprises hydrofluoric (HF) vapor.

In another embodiment, as mentioned above, the picking unit 103 comprises the flexible substrate 1032 and the supporting structure 1031. After the first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 is separated from the sacrificial layer 201, the flexible substrate 1032 and the supporting structure 1031 are able to be separated to form a flexible display as shown in FIG. 11B.

Second Embodiment

FIGS. 2A to 2H show the structures corresponding to the steps of a manufacturing process according to the second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2A, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment lies in the structure of the adhesion structure 2. In this embodiment, the sacrificial layer 201 is between the surface 1011 of the adhesion substrate 101 and the adhesion layer 202. Though the other processes shown in FIGS. 2B to 2H are the same as the first embodiment, after the first semiconductor epitaxial stacks 31 are formed by the process disclosed in this embodiment, each of the first semiconductor epitaxial stacks 31 has the adhesion layer 202 on a surface 311 of each of the first semiconductor epitaxial stacks 31.

Then, as shown in FIG. 3B, the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the adhesion substrate 101 are bonded through the sacrificial layer 201 and the adhesion layer 202 by heating and pressing to form the adhesion structure 2. Because the material of the adhesion layer 202 comprises BCB, the sacrificial layer 201 extrudes the material of the adhesion layer 202 between the sacrificial layer 201 and the adhesion substrate 101 during the bonding process. Therefore, the thickness of the adhesion layer 202 between the sacrificial layer 201 and the adhesion substrate 101 is smaller than the thickness of the adhesion layer 202 between the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the adhesion substrate 101. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment lies in the structure of the adhesion structure 2. In this embodiment, the sacrificial layer 201 is on the adhesion layer 202 and does not contact the surface 1011 of the adhesion substrate 101. The other processes shown in FIGS. 3B to 3H are the same as the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 4A, the difference between this embodiment and the third embodiment is that the surface 311 of each of the first semiconductor epitaxial stacks 31 contacts the patterned sacrificial layer 201 and the adhesion layer 202. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 4B, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment can be that the surface 311 of each of the first semiconductor epitaxial stacks 31 contacts the patterned sacrificial layer 201 and the adhesion layer 202. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 4C, the difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment can be that each of the patterned sacrificial layers 201 corresponding to the first semiconductor epitaxial stacks 31 is covered by the adhesion layer 202 and adhered to the adhesion substrate 101. A growth substrate 102 is provided and a semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 is formed on the growth substrate 102 by epitaxial growth.

The first semiconductor layer 301 and the second semiconductor layer 303 have different conductive types, different electrical types, different polarities, or are doped with different elements for providing electrons or holes. When the first semiconductor layer 301 is p-type semiconductor, the second semiconductor layer 303 is n-type semiconductor, of which the electrical type is different from that of the p-type semiconductor. On the contrary, when the first semiconductor layer 301 is n-type semiconductor, the second semiconductor layer 303 is p-type semiconductor.

Specifically, the converting unit 302 can be intrinsic, p-type, or n-type semiconductor. When an electrical current passes through the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3, the converting unit 302 is able to emit light. As the converting unit 302 is made of aluminum gallium indium phosphide (AlGaInP) series, the light emitted from the converting unit 302 is amber series such as red, orange, and yellow. As the converting unit 302 is made of aluminum gallium indium nitride (AlGaInN) series, the light emitted from the converting unit 302 is blue or green.

In the next step, as shown in FIG. 5B, the growth substrate 102 is separated from the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and a surface 3011 of the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 is exposed. The method of separating the growth substrate 102 comprises irradiation method which uses a laser penetrating the growth substrate 102 to irradiate the interface between the growth substrate 102 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 for separating the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the growth substrate 102. In addition, wet etching method can be applied to directly remove the growth substrate 102 or remove an interlayer (not shown) between the growth substrate 102 and the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 for separating the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the growth substrate 102.

In the next step, as shown in FIG. 5D, the semiconductor epitaxial stack 3 and the adhesion structure 2 are patterned to reveal the surface 1011 so a plurality of semiconductor epitaxial stacks is formed, wherein the multiple semiconductor epitaxial stacks are separated. The multiple semiconductor epitaxial stacks comprise a first semiconductor epitaxial stack 31 and a second semiconductor epitaxial stack 32.
